It begins with their location in the Catalan countryside in the remote village of Avinyonet del Penedès, where the Esteve family traces their history to 1597 with the building of their Masia (Catalan farmhouse) named \"Can Fontanals,\" the traditional family home. Their spirit of innovation and respect for traditions, driven by an undercurrent of constant self-improvement and a relentless drive for quality, are the defining characteristics that set Avinyó Cava apart from others. Today, Avinyó produces wine exclusively from vineyards that they own and farm organically with great care and respect, a rarity among Cava producers. This point cannot be overstated, as the unfortunate commodification of Cava by the industrial-volume producers has resulted in intense downward pressure for grape prices in the region and a subsequent race to the bottom for Cava pricing, especially in the US market. This, in turn, has led to the reality that most Cavas that make it to the US are not from organic farms like Can Fontanals. Rather, they are industrially produced from an anonymous base wine purchased cheaply from the local cooperative, re-fermented and aged for the bare-minimum time required (9 months), and adorned with a fantasy label, from a winery which does not exist. This is the situation in which serious Cava producers find themselves today, a reality which only serves to drive the resourceful Esteve-Nadal family to push their quality standards higher each vintage, setting themselves in bold contrast to companies who do not farm their own fruit or even know the origin of their grapes.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-07-13T15:33:33-04:00","created_at":"2023-07-12T08:30:43-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Spain","Other_Wine","Producer_Avinyo Caves","Region_Rioja","RK1207","Source_WineOnlineDelivery0723","Type_Sparkling Wine","Varietal_Cava Blend"],"price":6795,"price_min":6795,"price_max":6795,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43036400910474,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Avinyo Caves | Brut Reserva Cava","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":6795,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/09_976b3ce0-7338-4371-bb7d-a6afa2590b92.jpg?v=1689165110"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/09_976b3ce0-7338-4371-bb7d-a6afa2590b92.jpg?v=1689165110","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Avinyo Caves | Brut Reserva Cava at CaskCartel.com","id":24786263212170,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.278,"height":777,"width":216,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/09_976b3ce0-7338-4371-bb7d-a6afa2590b92.jpg?v=1689165110"},"aspect_ratio":0.278,"height":777,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/09_976b3ce0-7338-4371-bb7d-a6afa2590b92.jpg?v=1689165110","width":216}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eSparkling Wine: 2018 | Avinyo Caves | Brut Reserva Cava\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery refreshing and fruity with lemons, green apples and nectarines.
